I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Yeah, I know a dude names Mike Mahler who, at 6'0 and 185, bench pressed 365 pounds (he's a martial arts and kettlebell master, I'm not sure if he still benches or not). Not only is he not a juicer, he's a VEGAN. Go to www.mikemahler.com to find out about him. He's a strength coach based out of Santa Monica.Originally posted by marketboy
My friend weighs 220 and benches 350. He is also athletic, very fast.
He doesn't use roids or anything. I think he has the potential to be one of the toughest people.
Does anyone know anyone more impressive? (I don't mean professionals who take roids either)

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

Bruce Lee has trained for several years and is able to get everything out of his body. He has studied combat and dedicated his life to it. My friend has not.
But based on just physical attributes, my friend is much more impressive.
Next??????
you seriously think so? firstly the SAS are a small unit, so thats like saying only a few of these guys could bench 300, secondly and more important is that these guys are in top shape, they are among the best of the best. They can go for months in the jungle convering like 500km a week, they go through extreme conditions they are at a peak pf physical fitness they climb up the most ruggid terain and you do not think that even 2% could bench 300? im sure the majority could and would be suprised if in actual fact there where any of them that could not.Originally posted by Alpine
Look at the SAS guys, I bet only about 2% could bench 300, but so what.
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
